Some locum doctors have told hospital bosses

:00:11.:00:13.

in Lincoln they will not work unless they are paid more.

:00:14.:00:16.

It comes as the United Lincolnshire Hospital's Trust admitted

:00:17.:00:18.

it is struggling to provide a full A service at Lincoln

:00:19.:00:20.

New tax laws mean temporary doctors could be thousands

:00:21.:00:23.

of pounds worse off - and many are refusing

:00:24.:00:26.

Everyday, around 140 to 180 patients come through the doors

:00:27.:00:35.

But staff are struggling to provide a full service

:00:36.:00:39.

Our doctors are rising to the challenge, so speciality doctors

:00:40.:00:49.

are moving from the departments to work within the accident

:00:50.:00:52.

and emergency department but the situation is very fluid.

:00:53.:00:55.

Hospital bosses say a change in taxation rules means that agency

:00:56.:00:59.

doctors now get to take home less money because their tax and national

:01:00.:01:05.

insurance is now taken away at source, and that means

:01:06.:01:07.

there are fewer agency doctors that want to come and do shifts here.

:01:08.:01:13.

This isn't just a problem in Lincoln.

:01:14.:01:16.

The hospital has too few permanent A doctors and is overly

:01:17.:01:18.

Lincoln's A Department has 3.6 permanent middle grade doctors

:01:19.:01:25.

and three long-term locums at the moment.

:01:26.:01:27.

So that's nearly half of the A doctors that

:01:28.:01:30.

In a statement, NHS Improvement says...

:01:31.:01:57.

But the association that represents local doctors says their members

:01:58.:01:59.

Are they prepared to pay us for our livelihood?

:02:00.:02:06.

Out livelihood doesn't seem to be their responsibility.

:02:07.:02:08.

Locums have children to look after, mortgages to pay.

:02:09.:02:10.

The hospitals couldn't care about that and they are paid

:02:11.:02:13.

for patient care and they are pay 6-figure sums to CEOs and managers

:02:14.:02:16.

Why don't they save money from there?

:02:17.:02:23.

Bosses here are now urging people to stay away unless they need

:02:24.:02:25.

emergency treatment, like Harry who spent the morning

:02:26.:02:28.

in A after injuring his arm while playing hockey.

:02:29.:02:33.

We weren't in there that long, a couple of hours maybe.

:02:34.:02:42.

We were waiting initial while to get my sling on but that's

:02:43.:02:45.

Managers know they need to recruit more doctors

:02:46.:02:48.

here but even with incentives, that's continuing to be a challenge.

:02:49.:02:51.

Gemma Dawson, BBC Look North, in Lincoln.

:02:52.:02:53.

Hospital managers say it is still business as usual

:02:54.:02:55.

for patients at Accident and Emergency in Lincoln this

:02:56.:02:58.

weekend, but that people should only turn up if absolutely necessary.

:02:59.:03:06.

A woman has died more than a fortnight after being hurt

:03:07.:03:09.

The 61-year-old had been driving on the A15 when she hit another

:03:10.:03:13.

It happened on 22nd March and Lincolnshire Police

:03:14.:03:17.

still want to hear from anyone who saw what happened.

:03:18.:03:22.

Northern Rail trains which run to Bridlington,

:03:23.:03:25.

Hull and Lincoln, will be operating at different times tomorrow.

:03:26.:03:29.

It's because staff are going on strike again.

:03:30.:03:31.

It's over an ongoing dispute over staffing and the role of conductors.

:03:32.:03:37.

Yorkshire Ambulance Service has won the contract to help people

:03:38.:03:40.

in the East Riding get to and from hospital

:03:41.:03:42.

The decision comes after they lost out on similar contracts in Hull

:03:43.:03:48.

60 new jobs are being created following a ?6 million investment

:03:49.:04:01.

Tayto, which owns Golden Wonder crisps, made the announcement today.

:04:02.:04:04.

Our business correspondent Leanne Brown has more details.

:04:05.:04:06.

They've been making crisps here for 70 years and thanks

:04:07.:04:10.

to a multi-million pound investment, even more crunchy snacks will be

:04:11.:04:14.

We're delighted to announce today the creation of 60 new jobs

:04:15.:04:20.

in our Scunthorpe facility based on an expansion, an aggressive

:04:21.:04:23.

We do loads of work, so all the main retailers,

:04:24.:04:28.

we will do their retailer branded products for them, so we are very

:04:29.:04:31.

Their success is kind of our success.

:04:32.:04:34.

Broadly we're about 50% branded and 50% retail brand.

:04:35.:04:38.

The company used 1200 tonnes of local potatoes each week,

:04:39.:04:41.

making up to 25 million bags of crisps in 144 different flavours.

:04:42.:04:47.

ARCHIVE: First, they pass over a separator, which removes

:04:48.:04:49.

stones, small potatoes and other foreign bodies.

:04:50.:05:02.

They started out as Riley's back in 1947 and from humble

:05:03.:05:04.

beginnings the firm is now a multi-million pound industry.

:05:05.:05:06.

And the town's MP says increasing production will help grow

:05:07.:05:09.

Every new job drives other new jobs as well because people in work spend

:05:10.:05:13.

money in the local economy so what you have here

:05:14.:05:16.

is a business that's expanding, that is delivering an iconic brand,

:05:17.:05:21.

Golden Wonder, but also many of those crisps we buy

:05:22.:05:29.

from retail only brands are made here in Scunthorpe,

:05:30.:05:31.

Once the new staff are in place, production here could double

:05:32.:05:35.

and as the company's logo goes, packing more punch power crunch.

:05:36.:05:43.

and as the company's logo goes, packing more punch per crunch.

Personnel from two Lincolnshire RAF stations have taken part in a joint

:05:49.:05:51.

Men and women from RAF Scampton and RAF Waddington marched

:05:52.:05:54.

Around 100 RAF personnel took part in the parade.

:05:55.:05:57.

It's a great honour that the city has bestowed upon the station

:05:58.:06:02.

and it's with great pride that we get to parade in Lincoln

:06:03.:06:05.

in front of the people that support us in the community.

:06:06.:06:10.

It was a disappointing night for Hull FC in the Super League.

:06:11.:06:12.

The Black and Whites slipped to fourth in the table

:06:13.:06:15.

after they were thrashed at home to Salford.

:06:16.:06:17.

Tonight's weather forecast comes from Keeley Donovan.

:06:18.:06:21.

We've got a lovely weekend coming up.

:06:22.:06:25.

Dry air, a light southerly breeze brings very little cloud

:06:26.:06:28.

across the weekend and by night growing chilly but

:06:29.:06:30.

And then on Monday, a sharp drop in temperature as this cold

:06:31.:06:35.

Out there at the moment then a dry, fine night with some

:06:36.:06:39.

Temperatures could drop quite low, particularly rurally we are looking

:06:40.:06:42.

at low single digits, so we can't rule out a touch

:06:43.:06:45.

So a cool start to the day tomorrow but dry and fine,

:06:46.:06:49.

plenty of sunshine and it really will begin to feel warm

:06:50.:06:52.

through the afternoon as well with just a very light breeze.

:06:53.:06:54.

Temperatures are set to reach the high teens.

:06:55.:06:56.

I wouldn't be surprised if on Sunday we don't get a little

:06:57.:06:59.

bit warmer than that, possibly up to around

:07:00.:07:01.

A sharp drop in temperatures, much cooler to start next week.

:07:02.:07:05.

Look North will be back tomorrow evening at 6.45pm with a full

:07:06.:07:10.

Until then, have a very good weekend.

:07:11.:07:13.

drag in more cloud and temperatures will be down by

:07:14.:07:32.

drag in more cloud and temperatures will be down by 8-9 .

:07:33.:07:38.

Hello, my advice would be to make the most of the weather this

:07:39.:07:43.

weekend, if you can. Because there will be a good day love sunshine on

:07:44.:07:47.

offer and it will continue to warm up as well. This picture was taken

:07:48.:07:52.

in Cumbria, at Workington, later in the afternoon. We got the sunshine

:07:53.:07:55.

eventually in northern England but it's in the Northwest we have the

:07:56.:07:58.

lowest temperatures at the moment. Under clear skies, it's turning

:07:59.:08:02.

quite chilly. There's some cloud but most is sitting in the far North

:08:03.:08:05.

West of Scotland and we will see some patchy fog affecting parts of

:08:06.:08:08.
